Advantages
IconNo delays and no need to change trains
IconComfortable seats with sufficient equipment
IconSufficient space in the train and reasonably quiet
Disadvantages
Iconno conductor
IconToilets and some seats were dirty
A long train was used from Aachen to Wuppertal, which is why it wasn't so full. The volume on the train was fine. However, the toilets and some of the seats were not clean. I also have to criticise the fact that there was no conductor on this journey to make announcements and check tickets. Otherwise, the seats were very comfortable and adequately equipped. The train was also on time and I didn't have to change trains to get to my destination.
